But we can say that about all "Is it better" questions, can't we?



I think having grace toward another's misgivings is the best way to go.

Is it better to quit a job you've had for 10 years and start all over in an entry-level position in hopes of doing what you've always wanted to do, or is it better to continue working at a job where you have seniority but it gives you no satisfaction?

OMG I'm currently in this exact situation!! LOL! Well due to financial obligations ; we just bought the house less than a year ago) and my seniority and FMLA for my disabled spouse, I stay at my job with not much satisfaction. But I tell myself I make good money and I have health insurance, etc. However, if I ever hit that lottery I will quit. IS IT BETTER to try alternative medicine (herbs, homeopathy, reiki, accupressure,etc) or stick with traditional medicine the family doctor prescribes?

I think it depends on the person. To me, there's no right answer.

Is it better to wake up without a migraine or without pain in your body?

Without a migraine, probably. I can't do anything with a migraine.


Is it better to teach children mostly how to survive (in an extreme sense) and take care of themselves or how to be a societal norm (thereby ensuring they have friends and family their whole life who will likely help them to survive)?

Teaching children how to survive and how to take care of themselves provides a greater reward than teaching them how to depend on others who may or may not be there for them. I have always been a firm believer in depending on myself before relying on others.

Is it better to save cash in case of impending doom or to purchase food supplies which last for years in the event of a catastrophe.

Almost always better to speak ones' mind.
